TEACHER NOTES:

Students have to fill in the gaps to complete the conjugation of the verb to study in the
Present Continuous.

Then, looking at some examples, they have to complete the spelling rules for the -ing form.
These rules are in Catalan.

For EFL students with a low level of language competence, it's a good idea to translate the
spelling rules.
